[sweettreats121]

Does anyone know how to depot or press cream blush!

[missgig97]

what color blush was that??

[marion8993]

could you do it over the stove instead?

[EABray0]

Use a needle instead of pliers.

@TheEndIsNygh look at her video on how to fix broken eyeshadows lol sorry for the late reply ha

[mlew2011]

love the video, so simple! is there a way to depot elf pallettes, such as the eyeshadow quad? do you know of any other inexpensive eyeshadows/blushes/etc that are easy to depot? thanks!

[ericaleung13]

@TheEndIsNygh Oh no!! Haha...ya, next time try taking out the metal pan WITH the eyeshadow ;)

[xAyuka]

Won't that melt your eyeshadow or something?

[ericaleung13]

@xAyuka It will not melt your eyeshadow unless it is a cream- or gel-based product :)

[elixelle]

Excellent! I've been looking for depotting tutorials for ELF products. Thanks and excellent walk through the steps.  :)

[thetalldancer]

is your necklace tiffanys??

[ericaleung13]

@thetalldancer Yes it is :) Good eye for spotting it!

[Petisa83]

I depotted some of my elf eyeshadows and blushes and they did not stick to my magnet pallet :(

[ericaleung13]

@Petisa83 Did you adhere a magnet to the bottom of the metal pan? The metal pan itself will not stick to a magnetic palette. You need to buy some adhesive magnet (sheets are a couple dollars at the dollar store or places like Walmart)

[babybluangelz]

what colour are your nails? D; i lovee theem

[Shukkhy]

I missed your videos. Hope there's more to come!

[monica8six]

I kinda squirmed when you poked the blush.

[ericaleung13]

@monica8six I knowwwwwww hahaha :'(

[LNSBnews]

i was just wondering what products/ such as makeup you use on your face for everyday? your skins amazing

[youhatejesskuh]

is elf make up good? ive seen it at stores for like a dollar, im scared to try it.

[softballcrazy9402]

do you like the solia flat iron?! i'm thinking about getting one!

[ericaleung13]

@softballcrazy9402 It has served me very well for many years (too many to even remember, but definitely more than 5 years). The price is good for a good quality iron, without breaking the wallet for professional-grade ones. I have since upgraded to a GHD iron.

[JoyBunny24]

I really don't want to be rude, but if you're going to depot them why not buy them in the pan refill thingy? That saves you money and you're basically buying them to depot them so why not save money and not have to depot them?

[gennett21]

@JoyBunny24 I was thinking the same thing. Good question! lol

[ericaleung13]

@gennett21 Good question -- thanks! Please see my reply to JoyBunny24.

[ericaleung13]

@JoyBunny24 Good question! Buying the refill pan does save some money and effort, but they are not available for all eyeshadow / blush colours. This is especially true for limited edition colours. So if you want those colours that only come with the plastic case, this is a method you could use to depot them :) I hope this helps!

[JoyBunny24]

@ericaleung13 this is true and I'm sorry I didn't mean to be rude or anything. It is true you can get only some colours in the pan which sucks because it costs more. It's just too much effort depotting them lol :-)

[igotnocookieforu]

hiiiii what foundation are you wearing in this video and what shade? thanks

[ericaleung13]

@igotnocookieforu MAC Studio Tech foundation in NC30 :)

[holliebasham]

i use oil blotting sheets to put on the straitners because it doesnt burn :)

[CmdrBittles]

I found the elf brightening quads to be incredibly hard to depot. I ruined a few of the triangles doing that. Most of them were fine, but a couple of them just refused to come out and got bent or broken. I used a sewing machine needle to poke them out.

[reynughh]

PLEASE DO A HAIR TUTORIAL FROM YOUR HAIR IN THE LEIGHTON MEESTER VIDEO !!!!!!! :D

[MsRolley]

great!

[newnoona]

how come i havent seen any makeup tutorials from you? im not that old of a subscriber so i might have missed the old stuff if you used to make tutorials, but i'd love to see how you apply makeup that is flattering for your eye type since i have eyes just like yours and all the other gurus do stuff that never really work on me. i already saw your tutorial with the drawn eye shapes and your tips but id love to see a live tutorial , thanks!

[warwinpink22]

Is there any drugstore palette cases?

[LaPetiteArtiste]

Whats the point of this again lol? To put it into a new package?

[moonabove89]

@LaPetiteArtiste Yes, if you have an empty palette like a Z-Palette or a Mac one with the liner removed... so you don't have to carry around so many individuals... it's all in one case.

[mamakstew2]

Do you like elf ?? I know a lot of people don't and some do. I have only used their brushes which are good well at least their "eyeshadow brush"
